Saintpaulia Exhibition May 14 – 17, 2015
The diversity of saintpaulias, flowering in the spring, is incredible. They are commonly known as African violets but have no real relation to actual violets. In the family Gesneriaceae there are 2900 species and 139 genera, among them trees, shrubs, herbaceous plants, lianas and epiphytes. In addition to saintpaulias, the best-known representatives of this family include sinningia, codonanthe, magic flowers, lipstick plants, cape primroses, flame violets, goldfish plants, chirita and others.
The exhibition is organised in collaboration with private collectors.
During the exhibition rare varieties of saintpaulias, as well as saintpaulia substrate and special fertilisers are also sold. Consultation on the cultivation of Gesneriaceae is available during the exhibition opening hours
